Homeward Bound

We had a huge breakfast, and soon it was time to head home. Daddy was fearful that we'd encounter lots of traffic on the way home, as it was Memorial Day weekend. But, the only time we got slow was around Atlanta, when we were very close to home.

Madison is so content in that back seat, when she has her toys nearby, her coloring sheets and crafts close at hand, and a DVD player in front of her. Daddy looks back at her in the rearview mirror, sitting there with her headphones on. She's growing up so fast, and she's so beautiful.

We arrived home with little fanfare, and started bringing in all the luggage and items immediately. We'd unpack later.

Nana helped Daddy return the car to the rental place, where we encountered a monster thunderstorm. The rain came down in torrents, soaking through - and yet when we returned, it never rained a drop at the house. Funny how the weather is: the rental place is only eight miles away, and had we not gone there, we would never had known it was even raining in the first place.

Madison went to bed early tonight. We all did, in fact. It was a long day. It was a long vacation! But we were ready to be back.

Sort of!
